The geometrical structure and spatial arrangement of lumens, bordered pits, and scalariform perforation plates in xylem vessels modulate water flow from roots to leaves. Understanding their respective hydraulic functions is essential to unveil how plants regulate their hydraulic networks to facilitate the ascent of sap under biotic and abiotic stresses but is challenging because of the opaque nature of the vessel networks and water flow within them. We made the first-ever effort to discern the difference between lumens and scalariform
